[pct-l] Questions on the Amazing Hike

[Bighummel at aol.com (Bighummel@xxxxxxx)]

Unknown to this list, I hiked the PCT in 1983 in 13 days, averaging only 192 
miles per day.  I took no zero days and did not sleep or rest for the entire 
time.  I had no support team and carried only a fanny pack and wood handled ice 
axe.  I ate only pine bark (widely found on the PCT) soaked in water and 
spiced with soy sauce.  Never sleeping helped me by not having to carry either a 
sleeping bag or shelter.

"When the truth is buried deep,
beneath a thousand years of sleep, 
Time demands a turnaround, 
and once again the truth is found . . . 
awakening the Hurdy Gurdy man who comes singing songs of love . . ."

                  offered to Donovan by George Harrison.
